They clicked a lot of pictures as a couple and also with their family, Anuj not leaving a single chance to be close to his Anu.. be it placing her arm around her shoulder or waist, or resting his chin on her shoulder, or hugging/kissing her ... and her holding his arms, her head on his shoulder or chest, and gazing at him lovingly..

At dinner time, the lawn was converted into a buffet setup..everyone fed sweets to the bride and groom..and asked them to pick out each other's favourite food and feed it to each other before dinner.. Anu went to the dessert counter to get some chocolate fudge, and Anuj removed an imli candy from his pocket.. and they lovingly fed each other..

Mukku:" Chalo, ab khaana khate hain..bhook lagi hai..bhai, bhabhi..aaplog kya khaoge?"

Devika and Bunty:" Chaat"

Anuj:" Haan..baat toh sahi hai.. mujhe pehle ragda pattice khaana hai"
Anu:" Mujhe pani puri...tum dono sachme hume sabse acche se jaante ho"

Devika:" Best friends kise kehte hain meri jaan...I mean..Anuj ki jaan" and she started laughing

Anu and Anuj:" Devika ki bacchi!!"

Bunty:" Arre usse chodo..pehle khaana kha lo chalo"

They all have food, MaAn feed each other , just gazing into each other's eyes... Anuj sees a grain of food stuck near Anu's lips, he wipes it using his fingers...and Anu blushes even more...
They all complete dinner, and it's time to go home...
Mukku:" Bhai, Bhabhi..aap dono ke liye humne jo bhi wedding gifts liye haina..woh hum ghar lejayenge...aap aaramse jab time mile dekh lena.. aaj toh aap busy honge na" and she winked at them.. laughing at their embarrassed faces.."

Bunty:" Chalo..ab ghar chalte hain..main drive karunga aur Devika bhi hogi...hum dono tumhe ghar tak drop karenge.."

They bid a goodbye to Anu's mom, Bapuji, Mamaji, kids, Sanjay, Dolly Bhavesh...and everyone had happy tears in their eyes as they blessed the couple..
Anu's mom had promised to shift with them in a few days..

Anuj helped Anu sit in the car and slipped in beside her, the bulky lehenga leaving barely any space for him..

Devika:" Anuj, agar tu uncomfortable ho toh yahaan aage aaja..main Anu ke saath baith jaungi"

Anuj:" Nahi bilkul nahi.. main apni Anu ke saath hi baithunga.."

And they waved goodbye, as the car started..

GK and Mukku were coming in the car behind them..

In MaAn 's car, both Anu and Anuj were lost in each other's eyes.. holding hands.. Anuj slowly came closer and put his head on her shoulder, and slowly blew at her hair, dangling at the side.. as she shivered...he held her gaze, and slowly placed his lips on the crook of her neck...Anu whispered

Anu:" Anoooj, Devika aur Bunty yahin hain"

Anuj, whispered back:" par car me partition hai na..unhe kuch nahi dikhega...shhhhh"

Anu smiled, blushing... and pushed him away from her shoulder, placed her head on his chest and wrapped her arms around him...
She felt at peace, snuggling into him, closing her eyes and listening to his heartbeat...
He held her tighter,feeling her breaths on his chest, stroking her hair lovingly, inside the pallu on her hair...
He slowly slid her hair to one side and started stroking her..and paused, to see if she was uncomfortable, but she just hugged him tighter...so he slowly moved his hand lower and caressed her bare waist... she clutched the back of his kurta in her fists...
She was enjoying the attention he was showering her with...it made her feel really special..and he was grateful to have her in his arms, comfortable...it spoke volumes about the love and trust she had for him..but he wanted to know if she was comfortable to take the next step forward...
Anuj:" Anu..."
He was about to continue, when the car stopped..
